i am so fortunate i’m at a
point in my life where when i go out to eat, i usually don’t have to pay
attention to the price of the food. tonight for dinner, i went to wingstop. i
got the usual, 10-piece combo all-flats with honey mustard. sometimes i do all
lemon pepper, other times i do 8 lemon pepper, 2 hawaiian. i did the latter
tonight. i’m eating my wings, enjoying myself. i never dip the wings in the
honey mustard, the sauce is strictly for the fries. in the middle of my meal as
i look down to wipe my hands, i glance at my receipt. it was $17 some change. i
was caught way off-guard. it used to be $10-$11 bucks for the meal. shit is
getting so expensive these days. i almost spit out my food, but i had to keep
my composure in public. what happened to the $1/per wing per combo days? or the
0.49/wing combo they used to have at macadoos?? i guess those days are over,
smh.
i do love wingstop, but damn, $17 for a 10-piece combo??
it’s getting ridiculous.
